My husband is browsing apps for our iTouch. He was disappointed by the boob apps (facts about breasts? boring!) and found the sex apps a bit cheesy. Fart apps are proving fruitful however.

I guess I have someone to blame my kid's boob and fart fascination on...

Sounds like you're working out quite a lot at home if you include the track and door installing.

Man, installing that door kicked my ass. But yeah, in general I take stairs and carry shopping to get a little more exercise like the Europeans do.

I'm impressed! Wanna visit Seattle, shrift?

Oh, my god, I would so be on a plane to visit if I didn't have to do annual review stuff this week and put out some bonfires.

Well, I'm in Oakland all week anyway--come next week! :)

Yay for shrift home improvement!
 
And that hair length is supercute for you msbelle. Mine is close to that short right now after Friday`s cut. But I still have bangs which I find philosopically weird and just kinda don`t like. I have historically avoided them to avoid the china doll look, to which I am prone.
 
Band meeting was fraught tonight, and what`s more l`m not sure the participants knew it was. The head pastor dude got pissed because he felt like we were piling on someone who wasn`t there. But he was supposed to be there. All five of them were. I dunno what to do if they won`t show up. Either we avoid the subject and don`t resolve anything or we talk without you there. Don`t ask, "what problems are we having" if we`re not allowed to talk about it.

I am looking through hairstyle sites. Anyone have thoughts on a celebrity that shares my face shape. I am really bad at seeing these things. I tried an app on fb, but it said I looked like Sally Field or Linda Blair and I don;t see it and I don;t think those two look similar, so I call bs.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Kat, the type of yoga Colin was doing was "hot" yoga. Is that trendy bullshit?

Hot yoga is Bikram. It's the only type of yoga that has competitions. No. Seriously. Some people love it (For K it was the only type of yoga she did) and most of the rest of the yoga community is judgy about it (believe it or not). Ashtanga is SUPER challenging, but it totally comes from a yoga tradition that makes sense.

Bikram comes from a dude named Bikram. He has a big training center here.

I think so many people dislike Bikram because (1) it's a cheat. Practicing in a really hot room bypasses the need to let your body build heat on its own through exertion and people get a better "stretch" but not through their own work (2) the Bikram guy is sort of a tool (3) it's a series of 26 poses (like Ashtanga, it's the same set each time) (4) the teachers are mean. And by mean I mean non-encouraging, non-positive, just sort of assholish.

Again, this is all built on heresay from others so take it for what it's worth.

I'm at times tempted to try Bikram just to see, but why? I love Anusara (and yes, also made up by some random white dude, but he came out of the Iyengar tradition) enough that I'm not even really willing to take the Vinyasa classes at my studio.

I'm a yoga snob.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I do think it's a shame there don't seem to be pictures. I'm not sure Colin's all that bendy. Misha definitely is.

I keep thinking of that Nip/Tuck where Misha plays a yoga instructor...
